Safety summary 1

The following general safety precautions must be observed during all

phases of operation, service and repair of this equipment. Failure to comply

with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual

violates safety standards of design, manufacture and intended use of the

equipment. KVH Industries assumes no liability for the customer's failure to

comply with these requirements.

Observe marked areas

Under extreme heat conditions do not touch

areas of the terminal or antenna that are

marked with this symbol, as it may result in

injury.

Microwave radiation hazards

During transmission the antenna in this system radiates microwave power.

This radiation may be hazardous to humans close to the antenna. During

transmission, make sure that nobody gets closer than the recommended

minimum safety distance.

On the TracPhone FB500, the minimum safety

distance on the focal line to the antenna panel

is 1.3 m, based on a radiation level of 10 W/m2.

The radiation level is 100 W/m2at a distance of

0.4 m from the antenna panel. Refer to the

drawing on the next page.

On the TracPhone FB250, the minimum safety

distance on the focal line to the antenna panel

is 0.6 m, based on a radiation level of 10 W/m2.

The radiation level is 100 W/m2at a distance of

0.2 m from the antenna panel. Refer to the

drawing on the next page.

SAILOR_KVH__IM.book Page iii Wednesday, June 4, 2008 9:42 AM

Distance to other equipment

Do not move the antenna closer to radars than the minimum safe distance

specified in Radar distance on page 12 - it may cause damage to the

antenna. The equipment must be installed with the following minimum safe

distances to magnetic steering compass:

TracPhone terminal: min. 0.3 m.

FB500 antenna: min. 1.0 m

FB250 antenna: min. 1.1 m

Service

User access to the interior of the terminal is prohibited. Only a technician

authorized by KVH Industries may perform service - failure to comply with

this rule will void the warranty. Access to the interior of the antenna is

allowed, but only for replacement of certain modules - as described in this

manual. General service may only be performed by a technician authorized

by KVH Industries.

Do not service or adjust alone

Do not attempt internal service or adjustments unless another person,

capable of rendering first aid resuscitation, is present.

SAILOR_KVH__IM.book Page iv Wednesday, June 4, 2008 9:42 AM

Grounding, cables and connections

To minimize shock hazard, the equipment chassis and cabinet must be

connected to an electrical ground. The terminal must be grounded to the

ship. For further grounding information refer to Grounding and RF

protection on page 119.

Do not extend the cables beyond the lengths specified for the equipment.

The cable between the terminal and antenna can be extended if it complies

with the specified data concerning cable losses etc.

All cables for your TracPhone system are shielded and should not be

affected by magnetic fields. However, try to avoid running cables parallel to

AC wiring as it might cause malfunction of the equipment.

Power supply

The voltage range is 10.5 - 32 V DC; 14 A - 5.5 A. It is recommended that the

voltage is provided by the 24 V DC power bus on the ship. Be aware of high

start-up peak current: 20 A at 24 V, 5 ms.

If a 24 V DC power bus is not available, an external 115/230 VAC to 24 V DC

power supply can be used.

Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere

Do not operate the equipment in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.

Operation of any electrical equipment in such an environment constitutes a

definite safety hazard.

Keep away from live circuits

Operating personnel must not remove equipment covers. Component

replacement and internal adjustment must be made by qualified

maintenance personnel. Do not replace components with the power cable

connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous voltages may exist even

with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries, always disconnect power

and discharge circuits before touching them.

Failure to comply with the rules above will void the warranty!
